Just a boy and a girl with a promise we'd always be true 
We grew up all too soon and discovered how little we knew 
Would the dream leave the ground? 
Was the future so sound? 

You and I, we had a dream to fly 
Wonderful dream, beautiful dream, don't let it die 
You and I, we had a dream to fly 
Wonderful dream, beautiful dream, don't let it die 

Then one day, you were gone, and my dreams all came tumbling down 
Childhood tears, broken years, our true love can no longer be found 
Though I'd waited so long, 
still the dream lingers on 

You and I, we had a dream to fly 
Wonderful dream, beautiful dream, don't let it die 
You and I, we had a dream to fly 
Wonderful dream, beautiful dream, don't let it die 
You and I, we had a dream to fly 
Wonderful dream, beautiful dream, don't let it die 
Oh Lord, don't let it die
